NaPoWriMo, April 2021 Writing Prompt, Day 8 - Spoon River Anthology, and then write your own poem in the form of a monologue delivered by someone who is dead.

NOTE: I read the "Spoon River Anthology" for an acting class. And I didn't like that it was poems written from the perspective of people as ghosts or in the spirit world at a cemetary. However, I do have a few favorites, because they seemed to have relatable lives and I even memorized one of the poems as a personal monologue. That aside, my mother's sister was buried in Tampa, Florida last Tuesday. So, I do not feel it appropriate for me to follow the daily prompt for napowrimo day 8. A tanka will have to be suffice as my poem entry/submission for the day. Thank you for understanding.
